ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, does anyone know if the embassies are issuing METV again, with borders opening up?

I have trips to India, Singapore and Vietnam planned over the next few months, and don't want to burn up a single entry every time I step on a plane. 

I would be applying while in the states. 

Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion centers around the current availability of the Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) following the reopening of borders. Some users have reported that certain embassies are issuing METV again, with one mentioning an application from the UK. It's recommended to check the local embassy or e-visa website for the most accurate information. Other suggestions include obtaining re-entry permits instead of relying solely on METV due to its limited availability.
